| crimsun | micahcowan: If you just provide the diff, you'll need to attach a sign-off, too. | 12:21 |
|---|---|---|
| micahcowan | From whom do I get that? And, if it's already been approved upstream (it hasn't, because I haven't tested yet, but it's light changes, fairly trivial)? | 12:22 |
| micahcowan | I do have git-core installed, but have only used it for things like fetching latest kernel sources. | 12:23 |
| crimsun | if you wrote the patch, you provide the sign-off | 12:23 |
| micahcowan | A gpg signature against the patch, then? | 12:24 |
| crimsun | what do you mean by "it's already been approved upstream (it hasn't, because I haven't tested yet"? | 12:24 |
| micahcowan | Well, what I meant, thinking that you meant I needed to get a sign-off/approval from someone else, was, "what about the case where it has been approved upstream?", even though, at this moment, such is not the case. :) | 12:25 |
| crimsun | if it comes from upstream, you either need to attach the sign-off, or you need to explicitly mention it in the changeset commit entry. | 12:25 |
| crimsun | take http://preview.tinyurl.com/3b6nqn for example. | 12:25 |
| leonel | is there a fast how to to make a .deb from a tar.gz ? | 12:26 |
| crimsun | in that example, the patch comes from upstream, so I mention the author (Takashi) | 12:26 |
| crimsun | leonel: see the Packaging Guide and the Debian New Maintainer's Guide | 12:26 |
| leonel | crimsun: thanks | 12:26 |
| crimsun | the sign-off is required for any patch touching kernel source (Linus's policy to which we adhere) | 12:27 |
| micahcowan | I'm not familiar with that. Alrighty, then, assuming I've just got a vanilla patch, what would be the process I need to follow? | 12:28 |
| micahcowan | (a vanilla patch, and git-core :) ) | 12:28 |
| crimsun | first, create a separate branch from master | 12:28 |
| crimsun | I'd run ``git pull'' while in master, first, to make sure you're current | 12:29 |
| micahcowan | Ah. Well, I've only ever pulled from upstream. Where do I need to pull from to get Ubuntu's? | 12:29 |
| crimsun | then you can ``git checkout -b your-branch'' | 12:29 |
| === Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| crimsun | ok, I think you'll want to read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelGitGuide , then. | 12:30 |
| micahcowan | crimsun, I need to actually clone the repository, then? | 12:31 |
| crimsun | yes. | 12:31 |

| crimsun | micahcowan: then, git-format-patch -o ~ master | 12:40 |
| micahcowan | crimsun, is git-update-index the equiv of "svn add", etc? I shouldn't need that, then: just mods of existing files. | 12:40 |
| crimsun | micahcowan: no, -update-index marks modified files for commit. git-commit actually commits. You're thinking of git-add. | 12:41 |
| micahcowan | Okay. Guess I'm used to tools that do that in one step (the marking and committing). | 12:42 |
| crimsun | micahcowan: the ~/0001-foo file is what you'll inlineto an email and send to kernel-team at lists dot ubuntu | 12:42 |
| crimsun | inline to ^ | 12:42 |

| Fujitsu | (ion3 is heading over there shortly) | 12:58 |
| crimsun | yes. Simply ask for a demotion, and include the rationale. | 12:58 |
| Fujitsu | Thanks. | 12:58 |
| Fujitsu | I love people being over-protective of their trademarks. | 12:58 |
| Hobbsee | which for? | 12:59 |
| Fujitsu | ion3 upstream has said that nothing is allowed to be called ion3 unless it has no patches, and is the latest upstream version. Debian has complied (and so moved it to non-free). | 01:00 |

| wolfeon | hmm | 02:27 |
| leonel | correct me if I'm wrong please | 02:30 |
| micahcowan | a kernel package build requires the abifile from the previous kernel. Where can I find that? | 02:31 |
| leonel | I need a package from universe but I need the newest package, and that package won't make to universe and that's fine, but I need to install that newest package. IF I do not enable universe and install that newer package it should not break any thing right ? | 02:32 |
| LaserJock | leonel: well, depending on the package, you should be fine with having universe enabled | 02:34 |
| leonel | LaserJock: let me be more specific I need the newest clamav on Dapper and the newest clamav on dapper can break many things If I get clamav from feisty and install it on Dapper backported of course but I have nothing else from universe installed on dapper nothing should get break right ? | 02:35 |
| leonel | let me add puctuations .. | 02:36 |
| Hobbsee | you may have trouble dist upgrading | 02:37 |
| leonel | LaserJock: let me be more specific. I need the newest clamav on Dapper, and the newest clamav on dapper can break many things on Dapper if I have universe enabled or packages from universe installed that requires Dapper's clamav. If I get clamav from feisty and install it on Dapper backported of course, but I have nothing else from universe installed on dapper nothing should get break right ? | 02:37 |
| Hobbsee | but it wont break while you're on dapper, no, due to the lack of updates | 02:37 |
| leonel | Hobbsee: right | 02:37 |
| LaserJock | isn't clamav being updated? | 02:37 |
| leonel | didn't saw that | 02:37 |
| LaserJock | I thought we were working on a policy for that | 02:37 |
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: i didnt think the entire new version of it? | 02:37 |

| leonel | keep always the newest version | 02:38 |
| leonel | not patched o | 02:38 |

| leonel | I need the newest | 02:38 |
| Fujitsu | It may be being upgraded. | 02:38 |
| LaserJock | I thought we were making it an exception to the "new new upstream versions" policy of SRUs | 02:38 |

| LaserJock | keescook would know what's up | 02:38 |

| Hobbsee | exactly | 03:06 |
| Hobbsee | which is why i asked | 03:06 |

| crimsun | ScottK: what is the current situation (including problems), and what do you propose? | 05:18 |
| StevenK | One problem is that clamav doesn't shut up when it thinks it's out of date. | 05:22 |
| === man-di_ [n=mkoch@dyndsl-080-228-192-227.ewe-ip-backbone.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

| leonel | StevenK: yes and for end users that message gives them panic | 05:42 |
| leonel | even that for clamav I think it's better to keep with the most recent version | 05:42 |
| Fujitsu | It'd be nice if ClamAV didn't write their software such that it was inappropriate for distributions. | 05:42 |
| leonel | may be because it's not version 1 yet ? | 05:43 |
| === freeflying [n=freeflyi@ubuntu/member/freeflying] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| StevenK | leonel: I can't see ClamAV changing their procedures just because the version they happen to release is 1.0 | 05:45 |
| leonel | you're right | 05:46 |
| ScottK | crimsun: The problem is that the 0.882/4 variants we have in Dapper/Edgy are unmaintainable given our resources in Universe, but 0.90.2 cannot be backported per the regular backports policy because it breaks stuff. | 05:47 |
| leonel | yes I've tried that and was a no go | 05:47 |
| ScottK | Actually the current 0.90.2-4 from Debian can't even be backported to Feisty (not that it's necessary). | 05:47 |
| leonel | what I was thinking was to have in producction servers universe disabled | 05:48 |
| ScottK | crimsun: My proposal is to make a 2nd clamav source package | 05:48 |
| leonel | and install from other repo the clamav and things backported to dapper or keep new clamav on the current ubuntu version | 05:48 |
| leonel | so if there's no universe enabled no packages would break with the newest clamav | 05:49 |
| leonel | but that would be for some ubuntu antivirus servers only | 05:49 |
| ScottK | crimsun: It'd be design specifically to be backportable, but because it has a different name (I'm currently thinking clamav-alt) a user has to explicitly install it, not just have backports enabled. | 05:49 |
| ScottK | We could then have a page on the wiki about what was known to break/needed testing and then admins could make informed decisions. | 05:50 |
| leonel | ScottK: and can That clamav-alt would be updatable with new tarballs instead patching ? | 05:50 |
| ScottK | leonel: No, but as long as we can keep backporting the lastest, it shouldn't matter. | 05:51 |
| crimsun | hmm. Is there any way this work could be done in Debian? Are we dealing with process issues as well? | 05:51 |
| ScottK | I don't think so. | 05:51 |
| ScottK | They don't have so many supported versions. | 05:51 |
| leonel | like gentoo ... | 05:52 |
| crimsun | ok. So "clamav-alt" will then Conflicts clamav? | 05:52 |
| ScottK | leonel: If you install klamav on your desktop you can do that (it provides the functionality and I've tested it, but it's outside the packaging system). | 05:52 |
| crimsun | Do you plan to ask clamav to be blacklisted from future Ubuntu devel cycle autosyncs? | 05:52 |
| ScottK | crimsun: Conflicts/Provides, yes | 05:52 |
| leonel | klamav ? | 05:52 |
| ScottK | crimsun: It already has to be merged. | 05:53 |
| === zenrox [i=zenrox@pool-71-120-243-30.spknwa.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| crimsun | ScottK: ok. So do we plan to retain clamav source? | 05:53 |
| ScottK | crimsun: We'd still do the regular clamav package that would be supported per the current no breakage policy. Alt would be for those who want that latest AV crack. | 05:53 |
| ScottK | crimsun: Not sure I understand the question? | 05:54 |
| ScottK | leonel: KDE GUI front end for clamav == klamav | 05:54 |
| crimsun | I think you answered it in your most recent statement | 05:54 |
| ScottK | OK | 05:54 |
| ScottK | This still needs to get fleshed out of course, but that's the basic idea. | 05:54 |
| leonel | ScottK: need help to test it ? | 05:55 |
| === ScottK made a 0.90.1 clamav package that works on Dapper, just had to adjust some dependency verions - I think it's doable to have a clamav-alt. | ||
| ScottK | leonel: Yes, when we have such a package. | 05:56 |
| ScottK | We'll probably make a clamav crack test team or some such. | 05:56 |
| leonel | ScottK: Ok I'm in to it I need to keep with the latest clamav and would be great to make it available for all users | 05:57 |
| ScottK | crimsun: Comments? | 05:58 |
| ScottK | The alternative is to carefully test all the clamav rdepends (and there are a bunch) and backport them all at the same time. I think that blows the backports policy even worse. | 05:59 |
| crimsun | ScottK: I think it's feasible, but you'll really want to test from Dapper (LTS) forward through Gutsy+1 (LTS). | 05:59 |
| ScottK | Yes. | 05:59 |
| === ScottK has tested a 0.90.X package with Dapper, Edgy, and Feisty and got it working. | ||
| ScottK | While I'm doing the current clamav merge, I'll see about doing a clamav-alt in parallel. If I get something that seems reasonable, I'll upload it to REVU. | 06:02 |
| ScottK | Note that clamav-alt will have to go through NEW, so it'll be a while even after it's uploaded before it could be made available. | 06:03 |
| ScottK | leonel: Got a few minutes to run a test for me? | 06:08 |

| ajmitch | of course | 06:33 |
| LaserJock | well, that's part of the issue | 06:33 |

| Hobbsee | LaserJock: right | 07:51 |
| === micahcowan looks for another reason to refer to micahcowan in the third person | ||
| crimsun | micahcowan: hmm, what do you seek? | 07:51 |
| micahcowan | A howto? :) | 07:52 |
| micahcowan | Or even a brief tutorial. | 07:52 |
| crimsun | high-level or low-level? | 07:53 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: so if i'm supposed to respond, what am i supposed to say? | 07:54 |
| micahcowan | crimsun, either should be fine. | 07:54 |
| crimsun | The overview at http://lwn.net/Articles/191004/ is nice; /usr/share/doc/initramfs-tools/examples may help, too. | 07:55 |
| Fujitsu | Hobbsee: `Yes please'? | 07:55 |

| AnAnt | Hello, should there be a Comment field in .desktop files ? | 07:56 |
| === Hobbsee hasnt actually found out what the procedure is, so has just been silent, watching. | ||
| crimsun | AnAnt: it's good practice. | 07:57 |
| crimsun | Hobbsee: that's because no one's clear on the procedure :-) | 07:57 |
| AnAnt | crimsun: what's difference between Comment & GenericName ? | 07:57 |
| crimsun | MC's charter doesn't cover core-dev, really, which is all but confusing | 07:57 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: right. i believe mithrandir was just actign on the info he was told in -devel | 07:57 |
| LaserJock | AnAnt: probably you should read the .desktop specification at freedesktop.org | 07:58 |
| Fujitsu | AnAnt: Comment is something like 'Convert audio files into other formats', GenericName is 'Audio Converter' | 07:58 |
| Fujitsu | (taken from one of my packages, of course) | 07:59 |
| AnAnt | ok | 07:59 |
| nixternal | hey! crimsun, my Vista crashed again...since you are the largest advocate and #1 employee of Microsoft, why did it happen? | 07:59 |
| Fujitsu | Although most packages don't have comments starting with a verb, that's what the HIG says is right. | 07:59 |
| crimsun | nixternal: stop trying to run Kubuntu inside of Vista. | 08:00 |
| Fujitsu | Ooh, nasty. | 08:00 |
| Hobbsee | yay, nixternal with pointy-clicky vista again! | 08:00 |
| nixternal | hehe | 08:00 |
| nixternal | NOT! | 08:00 |
| === nixternal is broke, can't afford vista | ||

| nixternal | nevah! | 08:01 |
| Fujitsu | Hm... Does anybody know why we don't provide diffs for Packages files like Debian? Is it just that Soyuz is stupid? | 08:01 |

| Fujitsu | It irks me that there's no way to reduce all the waiting around for LP to grow features. | 08:07 |
| minghua | one diff per dinstall run? | 08:07 |

| nixternal | heh | 08:15 |
| nixternal | should be easier than Konsole you would thing ;) | 08:15 |
| nixternal | s/thing/think || stink | 08:16 |
| crimsun | I've not used g-t often, but I've not known about such an option. | 08:16 |
| nixternal | use ~tilda with Gnome, much better | 08:16 |
| imbrandon | hrm i always forget why i dislike gnome untill after i install it | 08:17 |
| imbrandon | lack of options | 08:17 |
| nixternal | plus the developer is a buddy in the ChiGLUG. He gets upset when I blog/talk/showoff/whatever/ about yakuake | 08:17 |
| nixternal | imbrandon: what? lack of options...you are kidding right ;p | 08:17 |
| LaserJock | imbrandon: hehe, the first thing I do in KDE is put the tabs on top ;-) | 08:17 |
| nixternal | hola LaserJock! | 08:18 |
| imbrandon | LaserJock, hehe but you CAN , heheh in gnome i dont seem to be able to | 08:18 |
| imbrandon | :) heheh | 08:18 |
| nixternal | have you had a chance to talk to Raphael at all? he bit the bullet | 08:18 |
| crimsun | tabs, eww. alt+F10 ! | 08:18 |
| nixternal | heh, split window yakuake ftw | 08:19 |
| imbrandon | crimsun, ^A+backspace (screen) | 08:19 |
| LaserJock | imbrandon: who needs options when the defaults are perfect ;-) | 08:19 |

| nixternal | LaserJock: it didn't do what you wanted, it does what you want it to | 08:20 |
| nixternal | hrmm | 08:20 |
| imbrandon | Microsoft gets is own TLD ( well starts using a country code domain ) .MS | 08:20 |

| imbrandon | Fujitsu, yes , yes it has ... | 08:21 |
| LaserJock | why in the world would it need its own | 08:21 |

| LaserJock | that's whta I was thinking | 08:22 |
| imbrandon | micahcowan, nah i use ^a + backspace ALOT | 08:22 |
| nixternal | that is the first things going into the proxy servers at school come Monday | 08:22 |
| Fujitsu | Nice, nice. | 08:22 |
| imbrandon | nixternal, cant, other things use .ms too | 08:22 |
| imbrandon | not just microsoft | 08:22 |
| nixternal | well, they get blocked too! | 08:23 |
| micahcowan | Actually, I think he's right. I think I can type backspace just faster than double-hitting the A. | 08:23 |
| imbrandon | hell microsoft.ms is avail for registration | 08:23 |
| nixternal | unless they are pr0n...can't block the students from pr0n now, they would kill me | 08:23 |

| nixternal | imbrandon: get it! | 08:23 |
| LaserJock | micahcowan: really? | 08:23 |
| nixternal | it isn't like they will buy it from you, but they will either a) steal it, or b) sue the crap out of you, beat you up, then steal it | 08:23 |
| micahcowan | LaserJock, yup. Looks like it'll be approved upstream, but not yet in. And I haven't done the debdiff yet (today or tomorrow). | 08:23 |
| crimsun | bah, just use red. | 08:24 |
| imbrandon | nixternal, or give me a xbox360 LOL | 08:24 |
| nixternal | haha | 08:24 |
| micahcowan | It works because screen actually understands the "activate mouse" sequence, and ignores it for non-xterms, while passing it on to connected xterms. | 08:24 |
| imbrandon | i still have two other domain projects i need to finish up, i should finish the google clone tonight | 08:24 |
| micahcowan | Can't autodetect highlight-tracking, though, so it's xterm (as opposed to xterm2) by default. | 08:25 |
| micahcowan | :( | 08:25 |

| crimsun | I'll address the last part of your question. When you're comfortable taking any source package in Ubuntu universe / multiverse, pointing out its packaging flaws [and possibly picking it up for leading maintenance] , then you're ready. | 08:36 |
| Hobbsee | micahcowan: there's no set metric, per se, just as in ubuntu membership | 08:36 |
| crimsun | [That's the same answer I gave Scot.tk] | 08:36 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: what, a new one? | 08:37 |
| micahcowan | Hobbsee, about which I was also confused as hell :) | 08:37 |
| crimsun | Hobbsee: meaning a new source package? | 08:37 |
| Hobbsee | doesnt that require knowing every programming language in hte archive? | 08:37 |
| Hobbsee | yeah | 08:37 |

| mjgumbley | Hello MOTU, I'm new here but would like to get involved in packaging various Java applications - I'm reading through the Ubuntu packaging guide, but is there any documentation specifically on packaging Java apps? | 11:20 |
| geser | there is a Debian java policy: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/java-policy/ | 11:21 |
| persia | mjgumbley: You'd probably do best to look at the packaging of a number of existing Java apps. The best practices are still under development. | 11:22 |
| crimsun | there's also #ubuntu-java. vil, also an MOTU, is on that team, too. | 11:23 |
| mjgumbley | geser, persia - many thanks. I was hoping to get freemind packaged, as I use it all the time on win32. It's under https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/102755 - hopefully if most of the work has already been done for Debian, it wouldn't be too hard to take on as a "first job" | 11:24 |

| mjgumbley | ubotu: I see that it's been approved - does that mean that someone has been assigned to look at it? | 11:25 |
| geser | mjgumbley: ubotu is a bot :) | 11:26 |

| afflux | can someone help me with the merge of "om"? It looks quite wierd to me... The old ubuntu package uses a different tarball than the two debian packages, it seems that the last merge was using the ubuntustudio package with *some* changes merged from debian. Now we have lots of differences in e.g. the .m4 files, package descriptions, copyright file, manpages etc. | 12:07 |
| persia | afflux: What kind of help do you need? Personally, for different sources, I tend to look at the diff between the last merged Debian version and the current Debian version, and pick appropriate bits of that to apply to Ubuntu. | 12:08 |
| crimsun | sacater: did you comment it out, or did you actually change it? | 12:09 |
| afflux | I wonder wether I should take the few ubuntu-changes mentioned in the changelog and add them to the debian package or do it as you just explained | 12:09 |
| afflux | persia: ^^ | 12:09 |
| crimsun | sacater: (I would actually change it, or chmod -x /etc/init.d/gdm, or ...) | 12:09 |
| sacater | crimsun: i commented it out, and all the fonts go weird on xfce | 12:10 |
| sacater | crimsun: change to what | 12:10 |
| sacater | crimsun: /bin/true | 12:10 |
| sacater | ? | 12:10 |
| sacater | pochu: no no, i want it so i start it manually | 12:11 |
| crimsun | something that doesn't contain gdm in the string | 12:11 |
| sacater | ok | 12:11 |
| sacater | hang on | 12:11 |
| crimsun | hmm | 12:11 |
| sacater | /bin/true it is | 12:11 |
| crimsun | if you want to start it manually, then just remove the symlink in /etc/rc2.d/ | 12:11 |
| sacater | no ya tell me.. | 12:11 |
| sacater | now* | 12:11 |
| persia | afflux: It depends on the nature of the change. For different orig sources, often that was due to an -0 upload in Ubuntu. If you think moving closer to Debian is better, I recommend checking with the -0ubuntu1 uploader to see why they made the choices they did, and whether things can be dropped. If the package has significant Ubuntu variation (rebranding, different behaviour, etc.), you probably just want to cherry-pick from Debian. | 12:11 |
| crimsun | sacater: you didn't mention that you wanted to start it manually, only that you wanted it to not start automatically. | 12:12 |
| crimsun | believe it or not, those are two separate use cases. | 12:12 |
| sacater | crimsun: i want it, so that when i boot up, i get console only, and i startx and fluxbox from there | 12:12 |
| crimsun | nice, 2.6.22-5.11 boots on my hardware | 12:13 |
| sacater | crimsun: S13gdm | 12:13 |
| sacater | do i remove that? | 12:13 |
| crimsun | sacater: from /etc/rc2.d/ , yes | 12:14 |
| afflux | persia: ok, I'll have a deeper look... thank you | 12:14 |
| sacater | crimsun: here goes... | 12:14 |
| persia | afflux: Please come back if you get stuck | 12:14 |
| afflux | persia: I will definetly :P | 12:14 |
| crimsun | yay, and systemtap works again. | 12:16 |
| persia | afflux: Just FYI, the om -0ubuntu1 uploader has become inactive. Try to get closer to Debian. | 12:18 |
| afflux | alright | 12:18 |
| sacater | crimsun: nope, the fonts are fscked, what about if we try just removing splash | 12:18 |

| Lhademmor | sacater: Thank you :) | 12:30 |
| Lhademmor | Okay then... Does MOTU/Schoool still take place? The wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/School seems very inactive.. | 12:30 |
| Lhademmor | And I won't go about this mentoringthing until I've studied the school a little more closely | 12:30 |
| micahcowan | AFAIK there haven't been recent sessions, but OTOH, a lot of the most important things have already been covered... perhaps they're looking for new subjects. | 12:31 |
| micahcowan | Lhademmor, why? What has the one to do with the other? | 12:31 |
| StevenK | sacater: You need to be familiar with the under-lying tools, such as apt-get or aptitude. | 12:31 |
| Lhademmor | micahcowan: "It is not designed to teach you how to package. MOTU/School is the appropriate place for that." <-- So I guess that's where I start | 12:32 |
| sacater | StevenK: i am familiar with them as in I use them on a regular basis | 12:32 |
| Lhademmor | micahcowan: Are there logs available? | 12:32 |
| Lhademmor | nvm, I found them | 12:32 |
| StevenK | sacater: Then to upgrade to it, you edit your sources.list, replace feisty with gutsy, upgrade and pray. | 12:32 |
| micahcowan | Good :) | 12:32 |
| micahcowan | Lhademmor, it's not designed to teach you packaging, perhaps, but I believe it is designed to guide you in your first attempts and challenges with packaging (otherwise, why would it be useful?). | 12:33 |
| sacater | StevenK: whooo! no thanks | 12:33 |
| sacater | StevenK: would it just offer me a distro upgrade | 12:33 |
| Lhademmor | micahcowan: Yep, I get it, and I'll try it out :) | 12:33 |
| micahcowan | But yes, you should definitely go through the school sessions, and read the pertinent wiki and Debian docs that are referenced there, and then come back here for clarifications :) | 12:33 |
| StevenK | sacater: No, it would run off and do it if you ran aptitiude upgrade or aptitude dist-upgrade. Update-manager is a little more "I'd suggest you upgrade." | 12:34 |

| pgquiles | geser: not without libtomcrypt0 but it could be without libtomcrypt0-dev which is the one lintian is complaining about | 02:32 |

| PriceChild | Hey persia, made some progress I think :) | 02:38 |
| persia | PriceChild: Great. Did you upload? Can I look again? | 02:38 |
| geser | pgquiles: you're shipping a lib in a -dev package? | 02:39 |
| PriceChild | persia, yeah, 5204 I think... yeah http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=5204 | 02:40 |
| pgquiles | geser: only the profiling lib | 02:40 |
| geser | and name the -dev package libtomcrypt-dev unless you need to support builing against multiple API versions | 02:40 |
| persia | PriceChild: I've already commented on that one :) | 02:40 |
| PriceChild | persia, ah ok lol.... I'm looking forward to redoing everything :P Haven't seen comments yet :) | 02:40 |
| PriceChild | persia, wow.... so you don't think I have to redo much.... :P Hmmm I wonder what I can do about the 64bit thing... I know someone who has a machine that I used to package beryl on, will poke him to ask if I can do that. | 02:42 |
| persia | PriceChild: No, aside from licensing, and python, it eyeballs well for me. Let me know if you have trouble getting access for the 64-bit build, and I'll prep a patch (my 64-bit patch for 2.3 doesn't apply :( ) | 02:43 |
| PriceChild | Ok cool... lets hope if I do get access to 64bit that I have half a clue what to do :P | 02:43 |
| persia | PriceChild: For 2.3, it was just adjusting a couple "int"s to "unsigned long"s, when they were used for pointers. I think a total of about 8 places in the code. | 02:45 |
| PriceChild | Wait a minute 2.3 what...? :S | 02:45 |
| PriceChild | gah the guy's gone on holiday now... I'm sure he would have just released a new version for me so we didn't have to patch. | 02:45 |

| === Ppjet6 [n=ppjet@81.56.130.254] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| geser | the only reason why a package is in NEW is because it needs a review by the archive admins | 07:47 |

| wolfeon | just to make sure I'm not blind. Ubuntu doesn't have anything in packages for python releases except 2.4 and 2.5, correct? | 07:51 |

| ubotu | REVU is a web-based tool to give people who have worked on Ubuntu packages a chance to "put their packages out there" for other people to look at and comment on in a structured manner. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU | 11:03 |
| Simon80 | not revu, prevu | 11:03 |
| welshbyte | oh... what's prevu? :) | 11:03 |
| Simon80 | jdong, I'm looking at you here :) | 11:03 |
| pochu | !prevu | 11:03 |
| ubotu | prevu is an automated, personal backporting utility. Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu for more details | 11:03 |
| Simon80 | thanks | 11:03 |
| welshbyte | heh | 11:03 |
| pochu | hehe, didn't know it was going to work :) | 11:03 |

| === Topic (#ubuntu-motu): set by Adri2000 at Tue May 8 18:09:35 2007 | ||
| Simon80 | if anyone is interested in my radical idea, I envision a simple system whereby you can maintain a non-redistributable package locally as if it were a regular, but it would be deployed in a repo format that only contains a diff, and no orig tarball | 11:32 |
| Simon80 | a regular package* | 11:32 |
| Simon80 | so the app to be written would be required to handle viewing repos, grabbing diffs and upstream binaries, and then building the package locally and installing it | 11:34 |
| welshbyte | Simon80: it's sort of already done, there are packages just containing scripts to download non-distributable software and run the installer | 11:34 |
| Simon80 | yeah, but it's all done in the postinst and prerm scripts, which seems wrong to me | 11:35 |
| Simon80 | it can be done in a way that leverages dpkg to manage the installation, with the script in debian/rules instead, but it isn't | 11:37 |
| welshbyte | Simon80: do you think it would encourage more people to make their software non-redistributable though? | 11:37 |
| Simon80 | no, I don't | 11:38 |
| Simon80 | there are linux distros other than debian | 11:38 |
| Simon80 | gentoo already does exactly what I'm saying, I'm basically inspired by that | 11:38 |
| welshbyte | right, i see | 11:38 |

| Simon80 | then again, perhaps it would, given the popularity of ubuntu | 11:39 |

| === superm1 [n=superm1@ubuntu/member/superm1] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Simon80 | I don't think it's right to make that decision though, it's up to the users whether they want to boycott these things or not, Ubuntu shouldn't force them | 11:40 |
| Simon80 | I mean, unless it wants to be like Fedora | 11:41 |
| Simon80 | it's between compromising on this stuff, or not being a completely viable replacement for windows | 11:41 |
| jrib | vifm's postinst script always returns error exit status 1. Here's the script: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21749/ . Adding "exit 0" as the last line seems to fix things. But, 1) I'm not so sure this is the right way to generate help tags after reading http://yacoob.dnsalias.net/sakwa/vim-policy.txt . What is the right way? 2) since this program isn't a vim add-on but just a file manager that emulates vim, should it be adding help files to vim? | 11:42 |
| === cassidy [n=cassidy@115.118-201-80.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Simon80 | doesn't seem like a logical idea, no | 11:43 |
| Simon80 | but I'm just some guy | 11:43 |
| jrib | thanks some guy | 11:44 |
| Simon80 | lol | 12:01 |
| Simon80 | that's just my opinion, I mean | 12:01 |
| crimsun | jrib: have you checked whether vim-tiny actually is capable of handling that postinst? | 12:01 |
| crimsun | it seems like that postinst needs to check a bit more than just the existence of /usr/bin/vim | 12:03 |
| jrib | crimsun: that's probably true as well. Making vim point to vim.tiny makes the script fail as well, though it succeeds if I add "exit 0" as the last line. Is adding "exit 0" as the last line wrong? I don't really understand why it exits with 1 whether it's vim.tiny or vim.full that's getting called | 12:05 |
| crimsun | e.g., `update-alternatives --list vim' or `readlink /etc/alternatives/vim' | 12:05 |
| crimsun | well, does the postinst succeed with vim and vim-full? | 12:05 |
| jrib | no, it fails | 12:06 |
| jrib | but, I run: sudo /usr/bin/vim -ec ":helptags /etc/vim/doc/ | :quit" myself and get no output | 12:06 |
| TheMuso | Hey all. | 12:06 |
| jrib | crimsun: oh, I do get lots of error output with vim.tiny if I run the command directly | 12:07 |
| crimsun | hi, Luke | 12:07 |
| Hobbsee | hi TheMuso | 12:07 |
| jrib | oops false alarm, the errors were because of my vimrc... | 12:08 |
| crimsun | hi, MissHidingFromLaunchpad | 12:08 |
| TheMuso | Hey Hobbsee. Seems like this early morning thing for you is becoming a habbit. | 12:08 |
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: yeah, maybe. but i do have to go to work tonight, so.... | 12:08 |
| TheMuso | crimsun: heh | 12:08 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: *grin* | 12:08 |
| ajmitch | TheMuso: it's not 3am though | 12:08 |
| crimsun | jrib: so what's the verdict? | 12:08 |
| TheMuso | ajmitch: heh | 12:09 |
| Hobbsee | it seems i shouldnt have replied to that thread at all, then | 12:09 |
| === ajmitch wonders which thread this is | ||
| Hobbsee | launchpad users ml | 12:09 |
| ajmitch | worrying | 12:09 |
| jrib | crimsun: the postinst script fails (returns exit status 1) with vim.full as well as vim.tiny . But the '/usr/bin/vim -esc blah blah' command succeeds if I run it directly using both vim.tiny and vim.full | 12:10 |
| === Hobbsee goes back to being a green alien. | ||
| ajmitch | Hobbsee: you do that so well | 12:11 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: indeed. | 12:11 |
| jrib | crimsun: by "succeed" I meant fails but has no output apparently... | 12:11 |
| crimsun | what does `echo $?' give you? | 12:12 |
| jrib | 1 | 12:13 |
| crimsun | so it didn't succeed at all | 12:13 |
| jrib | right, except the tags are generated | 12:13 |
| jrib | anyway, I think the solution is to use "helpztags" command like vim-latexsuite does or to just get rid of these help files since the program is not actually related to vi, it just emulates the keys | 12:14 |
